That's a good thing, because no one on the current Cowboys roster could stop Johnson on Sunday as he lit up their defense for 14 receptions for 329 yards and a touchdown in the Lions' 31-30 win on Sunday.

Sanders played for the Cowboys from 1995 to 1999, helping them to their last Super Bowl title.

"Now, you're talking about the greatest cover guy maybe that's played this game. I've seen where he's been declared the greatest cover guy. Hall of Famer. But I do think he could do a real good job on Johnson. Johnson's going to get some probably, but I think he could do a great job. Deion's a great player."
